Well, the Penguins won.
On one hand, getting four points in a back-to-back situation is solid.
On the other, no team seems to start as fast, then flame out quite like the Penguins.
Maybe they were tired because of the back-to-back, maybe they weren’t, maybe maybe maybe maybe blah blah blah.
In our opinion, blowing a 3-0 lead is a major problem, so whatever. It is great and everything...

The last time the Maple Leafs were at the Nassau Coliseum, I was in attendance sitting behind a group of what I thought was Toronto fans. That was, until I struck up a conversation with them.
It turned out they were from Australia, touring the sports venues of the United States and Canada. Coming from Toronto just days before, they visited the NHL store in New York City where they...

Blake Comeau scored and picked up an assist in his return from an upper body injury, and the Pittsburgh Penguins dominated the Detroit Red Wings 4-1 on Wednesday night.
Comeau missed nearly two months after getting hurt in an overtime loss to Florida on Dec. 22. He wasted little time getting back to work, assisting on Patric Hornqvist's score just 1:51 into the game and firing...

It is amazing what happens when a team has players playing in the roles they should be.
The Penguins got Blake Comeau back, and actually had some semblance of a top six. Just to prove a point the second line scored on their first shift, and overall they got two goals in the first period.
The Penguins other lines weren’t bad either. Goals from David Perron and Nick Spaling helped...

It wasn’t exactly a trending topic when the Penguins signed Blake Comeau to a one-year contract on the first day of free agency this past July. Comeau, who had only netted 11 goals in parts of the last two seasons, was at best seen as a guy who would primarily be filling a role in the bottom-six. His name not being Tanner Glass or Deryk Engelland was perhaps his best...

CBJ Season in Review: Blake Comeau
As discussed in my previous post, Matt Calvert was a major reason I became a Jackets fan. But another reason was because of my interest in Blake Comeau. He’s not a dynamic offensive player, isn’t the greatest defensively – he’s just kind of a “guy”. But is there more to him than a simple fourth liner? The 2013/14 season proved to me...

Before Wednesday, Blue Jackets winger Blake Comeau had played 422 NHL games, none of those in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Understandably, it wasn't just the same old, same old as he prepared for game one in Pittsburgh.
"It felt a little bit different," Comeau admitted. "I had a tough time napping; I was a little bit nervous. You know, this is my seventh year in the league, and I never...
